Halloween look!

Sunday, 31 October 2010

I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon with a Halloween look seeing as I can actually make myself look intentionally bad!I did a vampy-zombie look, not overly so as I don't want to look totally gruesome... my inner princess says not to!
I used my new Sleek Bad Girl palette for this as I couldn't wait no longer to use it (I'll try swatching later). Here's the stuff I used:

> UD PP> Sleek Bad Girl palette - "innocence" & "noir"> MAC rapidblack penultimate eyeliner> MO red kohl eyeliner> Dior Show black mascara> UD Surreal Skin concealer in "hallucination"> myface.cosmetics concealer in "213"> Illamasqua powder blusher in "hussy"> Elf lipliner in "bitter"> UD lipliner in "gash"> Red Herring (Debenhams) red lipgloss> Tesco fake bloodTo start, I used the MO shading brush to put Sleek Innocence eyeshadow (shimmery white, top left corner of palette) on the whole lid. I then used MO blending brush for adding Noir to the rest of the eye (matte black, top left corner). I have to say this black eyeshadow was absolutely gorgeous, no fallout like the lighter Sleek colours and gave such pigmented colour!I added the black all around the eyelid, from the crease to just under the brow, giving it a winged effect. I cleared the untidy bits with a cotton wool bud (with makeup remover), giving it a defined line of shadow as you can see below!I then used the Models Own red kohl eyeliner for the bottom lashline & waterline, as intended when I first tried it in September! It was pretty good and can be doubled as a lipliner; you can also use a lipliner for a zombie look for the eyes, as long as it's soft!I then used MAC rapidblack penultimate eyeliner for the top lashline, using Dior Show mascara after using the concealers under my eyes.

I only used a tiny bit of the blusher on my cheeks as I don't wanna look too healthy/alive, and I chose the Elf Bitter lipliner as it was more purple coloured (although it didn't end up looking as purple as I wanted! I also used UD Gash lipliner for the lips, filling the inner part of the lips with it, then topping the full lips with Red Herring (Debenhams own brand) red lipgloss & blotting the excess shine off.

I tried to do scary in the pic on the left but ended up like a little kid trying to be scary lol!
